I am using a latex template (class) to write my thesis but I get a weird output for the references at the end of the thesis. For instance, if I use something like this in the bib file:

@article{hh1952,
title={A quantitative description of membrane current and its application to conduction and excitation in nerve},
author={Hodgkin, A.L. and Huxley, A.F.},
journal={The Journal of Physiology},
year={1952}
}

I get the following output:

Simply, the title of the papers is not shown but book titles are just fine.

This is all what I found in the template file about bibliography:

% Redefine \thebibliography to go to a new page and put an entry in the
% table of contents
\let\@ldthebibliography\thebibliography
\renewcommand{\thebibliography}[1]{%
\newpage
\addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{Bibliography}
\@ldthebibliography{#1}
}
%\let\@ldbibliography\bibliography
%\renewcommand{\bibliography}[1]{\ifprint@bib\@ldbibliography{#1}\fi}

I wonder if it is just a matter of style or it is a bug of the class that I am using? How can I fix the problem?

Update:

The .bbl file contains the title:

\bibitem{hh1952}
A.L. Hodgkin and A.F. Huxley.
\newblock A quantitative description of membrane current and its application to
conduction and excitation in nerve.
\newblock {\em The Journal of Physiology}, 1952.

Thanks egreg for your answer. Actually, my referees asked me to add the title to my references. Do you have any idea how I can fix the problem? Do I have to change the file rmp2.bst?
